Overview

Whilst this walk is just over 11 miles, it is a gentle walk, for the most part on wide flat grass tracks along field boundaries with long distance Wolds views.

We start from the village car park just outside Huggate (£2 voluntary contribution) heading down out of the village to pick up the Chalklands Way. This takes us east through three short dales, the final one involving a short incline climb. Once out on to the Wolds top we continue to follow the Chalklands Way east to just south of Wetwang, before turning south towards North Dalton. Long before we reach this, we turn west to walk back along the wide grassy tracks to Huggate, the final half mile along the road. No stiles.
